"Yan Jin, such methods won't work on me." Faced with the surging crimson-gold sea of fire, Void Devouring Flame let out a cold laugh. He stepped forward, and black flames instantly spread outward, forming a curtain of fire that devoured the fiery sea in an instant.
Although the newly merged Heavenly Flame formed by the Nine Nether Gold Ancestral Flame and the Volcanic Rock Flame was formidable—stronger even than the sixth-ranked Eight Desolation Flame—compared to the Void Devouring Flame, there was still a clear gap. Furthermore, Yan Jin's strength was no match for Void Devouring Flame's, which made it even easier for his Heavenly Flame to be suppressed.
As Void Devouring Flame and Yan Jin began their fierce battle, the other members of the Hun Clan launched their assault on the Yan Clan's members. Xiao Yan, keeping up appearances, pretended to attack as well. His figure flickered and he appeared in front of a Yan Clan elder named Huo Yao. Before the elder could react, Xiao Yan struck a palm down on the crown of his head.
This elder, a Four-Star Dou Sheng, couldn't even resist. A strange suction force erupted from Xiao Yan's palm, and soon, a pale-blue flame was forcefully drawn out—it was the sixteenth-ranked Watercloud Stone Flame!
"Another one..." Xiao Yan let out a sinister chuckle as he swallowed the Heavenly Flame. With his current strength, refining lower-ranked Heavenly Flames was as easy as drinking water—especially with the little Heavenly Flame spirit within him, whose uniqueness even surpassed Void Devouring Flame's.
After swallowing the Watercloud Stone Flame, Xiao Yan casually tossed Huo Yao aside like garbage and moved to entangle Huo Ling Xianzi, another Seven-Star Dou Sheng of the Yan Clan. While they were equal in level, Xiao Yan had no trouble suppressing her—but he naturally wouldn't go all out for the Hun Clan, so he merely stalled her.
Most of his attention was focused on the battle in the sky. The outcome of this war hinged entirely on the clash between Void Devouring Flame and Yan Jin. Despite unleashing all his techniques—even top-tier Heaven Rank Dou Skills—Yan Jin still couldn't gain the upper hand. On the contrary, Void Devouring Flame's attacks left him battered and struggling.
"Void Devouring Flame! Even if it costs me my life, I won't let you off easily!" Yan Jin roared. He pointed into the void, and a crimson-gold giant finger burst forth. The immense energy it exuded surpassed even Xiao Yan's previous techniques like the Ten Hell Flame Finger and Yellow Springs Finger—this was one of the Yan Clan's most powerful Dou Techniques: Falling Flame Mystic Finger.
"Yan Jin, you're in no position to make such threats to me!" Void Devouring Flame laughed wildly, extending a finger wreathed in black flame. A massive finger of black flame appeared, even larger than the Falling Flame Mystic Finger. Like the finger of a demon god, it hurtled toward Yan Jin's attack.
But just as the two were about to clash, Void Devouring Flame suddenly realized that the crimson-gold finger had changed direction midair and was heading toward a different part of space. What he thought was a suicidal final strike had instead been a strategic ploy to tear open a rift in the space he had sealed.
As one of the Yan Clan's ultimate techniques, this attack was truly formidable. Combined with Yan Jin's late Eight-Star Dou Sheng strength, it successfully tore open a rift in the spatial seal. But in return, Yan Jin was struck squarely by Void Devouring Flame's attack, coughing blood repeatedly and falling into a state of severe injury.
Seeing this, Huo Ling Xianzi went berserk, unleashing a fierce offensive that forced "Hun Xu Zi" (Xiao Yan in disguise) back. She waved her sleeves, enveloping the nearest young Yan Clan members in Dou Qi and darted toward the spatial rift Yan Jin had opened. She didn't dare glance at Yan Jin's condition, afraid that a moment's hesitation would make her want to turn back and fight, wasting her clan leader's final effort.
"You're not getting away!" Xiao Yan, pushed back by Huo Ling Xianzi, noticed her intention and gave chase. Void Devouring Flame also moved to seal the spatial rift, but Yan Jin's figure suddenly appeared in his path, stopping him.
"I told you, you won't stop me!" Void Devouring Flame shouted. Just as he was about to swat Yan Jin aside, he noticed that Yan Jin's Dou Qi had suddenly gone berserk. A crazed look appeared on Yan Jin's face. "I may not be able to stop you… but I can drag you down with me!"
"No! He's going to self-destruct!" Void Devouring Flame's face changed. As he tried to escape, crimson-gold flames shot out from Yan Jin, forming chains that wrapped around Void Devouring Flame. Before he could break free, a devastating explosion resounded across the entire Mystic Flame Mountain Range.
The self-destruction of a late Eight-Star Dou Sheng—this level of power was nothing short of apocalyptic. Even Void Devouring Flame couldn't escape unscathed. Many members of both the Yan Clan and the Hun Clan perished in the blast. The entire mountain range was reduced to ashes in the resulting inferno. Had the space not been sealed, the damage would have been even worse.
As the firestorm dissipated, Void Devouring Flame's disheveled figure reappeared in midair. The black flames around him looked dim and weakened—clear evidence of the severe injuries he had sustained. Feeling the emptiness within his body, he cursed furiously, "Damn it!"
He hadn't expected Yan Jin to choose self-destruction so decisively, dragging him into it. Because of their proximity, he had borne the brunt of the blast. If not for his Heavenly Flame body, he might have been gravely injured or even killed on the spot!
"It's all that damned Hun Tiandi's idiotic idea!" Void Devouring Flame cursed inwardly. If they had attacked the Shi Clan or Ling Clan instead, none of this would have happened. Now, not only had part of the Yan Clan escaped, but he himself was heavily injured.
After venting his anger, Void Devouring Flame glanced toward the explosion site. Two flickering flames hovered midair—the Nine Nether Gold Ancestral Flame and the Volcanic Rock Flame—the very Heavenly Flames that had resided within Yan Jin.
Just as he was about to devour the two flames, a hand suddenly reached out from thin air and seized them. A black figure emerged, smiling faintly. "Thanks for all your hard work, Lord Xu Wu."
